But could your dad survive a Chuck Norris and ghost of Bruce Lee tag team ladder match?

I'm going to go with Chrono Trigger. Better gameplay and more polished.

FF6 - The ridiculous amount of character customization in FF6 with the Esper system that affects both stats and magic ability is second to none. The core of the gameplay is based around magic and is stupid fun if you lean into it rather than complaining that physical attacks become worthless (unless you know how to stack Sabin, Cyan and Edward). The story also hit me at the perfect time in my life (13 years old in 1994) so there is a strong pull of nostalgia here for me as well.

I think Chrono is technically more polished, but something about the scrappiness of FF6 just speaks to me. Still, both are brilliant and represent the pinnacle of Square Soft development. I don't think they've produced a game I like more than either of these in the last 28 or so years.

its easier to abuse the system in FF6, so FF6 it is. Chrono Trigger is excellent too, but just not as customiziable as 6.

I played through Chrono Trigger again during the pandemic and it holds up fantastically. Pacing is great, no need for grinding, and 5he combat is superb.

I appreciate VI for it's ambition and story, as well as the absolute gorgeous graphics and overall presentation. I think CT eeks it out by a small margin.

Chrono Trigger is my pick, even though I like FFVI aswell.

Chrono Trigger is a damn near perfect game, but I like the characters better in FF6 and I'm slightly more nostalgic toward it since I played it first. I tend to go back to FF6 more often. It's very hard to choose, though.

For story, id say Trigger. It's just fantastic. But FFVI is the pinnacle of Square RPGs

CHRONO TRIGGER all day

FF7 > FF6

 

[NexusX]

Chrono Trigger


But with FF games. FFIX > FFVII
FFVI is the best of the 2D titles though.

This man speaks truth.
